Covalent bond is when there is relatively less difference in electronegativity of constituent atoms. On the other hand, ionic bond is formed when there is large difference in electronegativity of constituent atoms.
In present case, electronegativity of F is 3.98, electronegativity of C is 2.55, electronegativity of tin is 1.96 and electronegativity of potassium is 0.82.
Here, since the electronegativity difference is minimum in case of C-F, so covalent bond will be preferentially with carbon.
It must also be noted that neon is an inert gas, hence it will not form bond with F.

Explanation:
<span>The notation is not written in the correct order as the 4s subshell should appear before the 3d subshell.
</span>The correct order in an electron configuration would be:
1s , 2s , 2p , 3s , 3p , 4s , 3d , 4p , 5s , 4d , 5p , 6s , 4f , 5d , 6p ,..
So, for germanium the electronic configuration should be;
1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p²
Answer:
ΔH3 = -110.5 kJ.
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, by using the Hess Law, we can manipulate the given equation to obtain the combustion of C to CO as shown below:
C(s) + 1/2O2(g) --> CO(g)
Thus, by letting the first reaction to be unchanged:
C(s) + O2(g)--> CO2 (g) ; ΔH1 = -393.5 kJ
And the second one inverted:
CO2(g) --> CO(g) + 1/2O2(g) ; ΔH2= 283.0kJ
If we add them, we obtain:
C(s) + O2(g) + CO2(g) --> CO(g) + CO2 (g) + 1/2O2(g)
Whereas CO2 can be cancelled out and O2 subtracted:
C(s) + 1/2O2(g) --> CO(g)
Therefore, the required enthalpy of reaction is:
ΔH3 = -393.5 kJ + 283.0kJ
ΔH3 = -110.5 kJ
Best regards!
